So impressed with the dishes here. We got the poke nachos and they were unbelievable. There was so much tuna! And it's not like a pile of nachos where everything on the bottom is bare. Every single chip was covered in toppings. The French toast was also delicious. Made with Kings Hawaiian, how could you go wrong! The only thing we weren't crazy about was the edamame. It was a bit too heavy on the garlic.

My favorite breakfast spot downtown. Their French toast is always a hit, the fruit they use is fresh, and their coconut flavored syrup is so unbelievably delicious. The last time I went was sometime in the winter of this year, and they had changed the way they made their mimosas. About 6 years ago they would hand me a carafe with what tasted like hand squeezed oj but this last time it tasted like cheap gallon oj was clearly a disappointment, bartender was a bit rude too was seemed to be annoyed I was in a good mood, to be fair not uncommon demeanor for bartenders downtown HB, but still….the plates are huge and definitely worth the price!

10.3.25: I was visiting a friend who lives down here and she comes here on a regular and said I had to try it. It's California so I already knew parking was going to be difficult, not to mention it's the weekend of the air show. However, we found parking in a near by garage, which was just a short walk across the street to the restaurant.
When we walked in, my friend wanted to sit at the bar, so we did. She saw her friend Charlie was working and he was our server. He was pretty laid back and friendly. My friend ordered us the edamame as an appetizer and it was really good. It took a while for it to arrive, but when it did, it was hot, spicy, and garlicky. It was pan fried with some really yummy spices.
As for entrees, I ordered the Aloha Bowl with tofu and my friend ordered the same but with broccoli beef. It also comes with 2 fried vegetable spring rolls. My tofu bowl full of flavor and decently sized too. The spring rolls were a nice addition and were fried well done. I would order the tofu bowl again.
Ambience wasn't too busy and the general feel I get from the place is that they are super laid back and run on island time, if you know what I mean. Since we're right on the beach, this Hawaiian inspired spot was perfect for lunch.

We ate outside both times, street side and the quieter back patio. Sort of rustic ambience. Food is well made.
No Ka Oi is a familiar phrase for someone like me who is from Hawaii. The immediate impression is that they have “local food” and glancing quickly at the menu at the front desk I saw the standard local dishes that indicated that they were someplace I wanted to eat. After all, I was in Huntington Beach feeling the ocean vibe. Instantly my mind started imagining the Rainbow’s Drive-in Waikiki. Sitting down at a table a friendly waiter soon approached me with a menu. Great! I’m hungry! Wanting to grind! So I looked over the menu and settled on the corned beef hash with gravy. I asked if it came with rice. Of course I did, but the waiter wasn’t sure and asked if I minded an up charge if it wasn’t. Strange, I thought. Definitely not a local food joint. Brah! Rice comes with everything! Lol! I just said no problem. Corned beef for a local boy Filipino is a must! I asked for the gravy on the side. I also ordered the pork belly char siu. Promising because it was spelled local style char siu! I’m a sucker for fatty pork! After about 20 minutes I received my order. The corned beef was interesting. Definitely not a local style corned beef plate. Maybe it is local inspired. The gravy which did not come on the side but poured all over, was a white gravy similar to what I usually see on chicken fried steak. It also came with vegetables that I typically do not see with corned beef. Not to judge, because everyone tells me that I need to eat more vegetables! Lol! Props to the restaurant, it wasn’t canned corned beef, but decent sized pieces of a side of a corned beef brisket. The reason I ask for gravy on the side is because sometimes the plate comes drowning in brown gravy. I took a few bites. It wasn’t bad but not what I am used to it came with rice. I don’t know if I got charged because I didn’t really look at the bill. I asked for box to bring my leftovers home and have it with my own rice. Japanese short grain white rice and eat the char siu in the comfort of home. Will I return? It depends on how my leftovers taste! Mahalo nui loa!
